That's true enough. I was just told my a vendor that the Cisco 2501A (ProLine) is actually inferior [performance-wise] to the Enterprise 2501. Not that I have ever bought a 2501A, but it was nice to know. Routing with only one protocol could cover its own book, so obviously some topics will have to be left out. I am a big fan of tomes, however, and wouldn't mind keeping a 5k page reference manual (with a killer index) in my car if I knew that there was nothing missing. -Deepak. On Fri, 8 Nov 1996, Paul J.

Actually, to cover everything the various flavors of IOS does, you would probably need different nutshell books targeted at different audiences, perhaps one for each flavor of IOS.

Actually the Nutshell books are great. "Cisco IOS in a Nutshell" I can go for that. Aren't they the ones that also do *the* Sendmail book?
